Benefits of Counseling

What are the benefits of counseling?

Why should I come to counseling? What am I going to get from it?

Counseling has been around for decades and when done by an experienced and professional counselor, can be very effective. 98% of couples who attended couples counseling reported a benefit in their relationships. A study by Rowland (2000) shows that people who have been in counseling are "significantly more likely to recover than those who are not in counseling." Another study where clients rated for themselves effectiveness of counseling, 86% found counseling "very helpful."
